hammurabi README

(current version X.01)

hammurabi is a HEALPix-based tool for simulating observables,
such as polarized synchrotron and thermal dust emission,
from models of physical inputs such as magnetic fields, dust and electron distributions, etc.

It is a modular C++ framework into which you can add your own models easily,
and then use it to perform the line-of-sight integration to compute the observables.
Please cite the original Waelkens et al. (2009) paper if you use hammurabi.

about X.01 release

Currently we are in TESTING release,
with only minimal amount of features available.
Not all modelings have been thoroughly cross-checked with original hammurabi!
A full release of version X is scheduled in 2018.
